2 Million Dollar Prize Money!!!

[SirTony76]

I got this from M5Board.com.

If $2,000,000 doesn't attract the craziest of drivers...I wonder what will? This will probably be nuts.

The first 3 cars share $150.000 CASH at every checkpoint (100K, 30K, 20K) and $1.4 mio at the finish line ($1 mio, 250K, 150K). Advanced GPS & UMTS handhelds will be used to track all cars in realtime (speed & routing statistics). This will prevent cheating and all drivers receive the routes at the same time. We are now working on the legal aspects to protect the organizers. Watch out for the launch of www.ultimaterally.com by the end of this year and start spreading the word.

I like to hear your questions, opinions, suggestions and criticism. Thank you,

This is just calling my name...

[SirTony76]

What if Dado took a (sorry, I know this is a BMW forum...get the eggs out) Mercedes Benz CLK-GTR Super Sport?

[iluv2xlr8]

Hmm... Sounds interesting.

[M3NTALM3]

You guys think Dado is crazy..? Christ, you guys havent met me yet.. lol
I can't stop thinking about this!!! This is my dream come true, im thre 100% whatever the cost and the rules this is going to be the best thing ever!!!

1) The site is not even working
2) This will get shut down and be "banned" wherever it goes through
3) Someone will die on the race

And is this Kimble the same one as from kimble.org? Sounds like with the current schedule, he will steal everyones money from 2004, 05, and 06 then skip out.

[SirTony76]

Yea its the same Kimble...I've heard of him being a scammer but we'll see.

Here is what I am calling on this rally:

Everybody knows he is an amazing driver. I think he is making his own rally to get some tougher competition because he feels competition is fun. He thinks he is good enough to win and is going to take the prize money from his own rally. We'll see though...

I completely agree with you. You're a step ahead of him!

[SirTony76]

Too bad I am the cheating master...I could easily cheat TO WIN with that kind of money at stake.

This has got to be a joke.
Rallies dont give out money for a reason, liability.
They call them basically runs at normal speeds..
If this was true, and their was a prize people would die..bigtime.

[SirTony76]

DO you know this guy personally? Can he get away with as much shit as he thinks he can? Or is he a wannabee mob boss?

[Scho]

I would like to see how much shit this guy gets in for setting up an illegal street race for money. He will be liable for any deaths, accidents, etc... This is bogus and the website does not even work.

[SirTony76]

At M5board.com people pointed that out and he said the site would be up within a few weeks.

I want to add that Rob Kennworthy seemed pretty enthusastic about it and was ready to sign up. I guess he knows this guy personally.

They already anticipate people will be injured and possibly killed competing in the rally.
